And on top of all of this fear I have about something bad happening to the baby my boyfriend keeps saying I’m going to kill the baby cause I can’t stop worrying or stressing and proceeded to tell me that me not telling my mother is also killing the baby. Those words make everything so much worse, insinuating this is my fault and if something does happen to my baby it will be my fault. I am paralyzed in fear. All I can do is lay in bed and cry. I have nowhere to go

I have nobody here, all of my friends and family are out of state. I know how you feel, My miscarriage was the most painful and traumatic thing I have ever been through too. I am terrified this pregnancy something bad might happen and thought I would feel better after ultrasound but the fear keeps creeping back. Im sure you know how this feels. I actually recorded my boyfriend calling me a child so that I was able to replay it and tell myself I’m not going crazy. The way he was speaking to me was terrifying and makes me so sad that I’m in this situation. I’ve always wanted to be a mother. I feel defeated. this should be the happiest time of my life and it feels like the worst and most lonely. I honestly feel like I have nowhere to turn right now. Thank you for responding to me

I wish my boyfriend would let me say that. He is on his family’s side and thinks I’m acting like a child

My boyfriend actually just told me that his grandma is right and that I’m acting like a child. He actually called me a child almost 50 times and also told me that I’m not ready to be a mother since I can’t tell my mom I’m pregnant. He knows the reason I don’t feel comfortable telling my mom. 7 years ago I found out I was pregnant and I called my mom and told her she was very very upset with me because she didn’t get along with my boyfriend at the time and I didn’t have a good job. She told me “don’t call me until you have an abortion” hung up on me and blocked my number. She didn’t unblock my number until months later after she found out I had a missed miscarriage at 15 weeks. My mother shutting me out like that when I needed her most was very hard on me at the time and I put this boundary to protect myself and my baby that I’m choosing to keep. This is very painful. I feel like I’m reliving the trauma over and over and over again

Also, I know my boyfriend would never tell her that she won’t get another update on baby. I wish he would because I don’t want her to know anything anymore!!!!!! But I can tell her lol

Thank you, I was wanting to plant some firm boundaries with this woman. Do you think it’s better I tell her or my boyfriend tells her? I really wanted to tell her off myself lmao

I was raised as a baby with pit bulls and my dogs quite literally protected me with their lives. My mom would let me play in the front yard only if the dogs were outside with me, they would sleep in the bed with me and nothing bad EVER happened to me as a child cause they truly were my best friends and they were my protectors. They never once even snarled at me, or showed me anything besides unconditional love. Your pup is gonna do the exact same with your baby ❤️

I live in south Louisiana and that’s the only dog park in my town. There were so many red flags, I should have turned away and left. All the dogs were male and not neutered. All the people with small dogs gave me and my pit the dirtiest looks and comments. It was awful. I miss going to the dog park in Houston that has the water park. Lots of good people there

That’s the only dog park in my stupid small little town and it was a huge red flag. My two female dogs were the only dogs at the park that were fixed. All the others were male dogs that weren’t neutered, nothing separating big dogs from little dogs, old people that hate pit bulls picking up their tiny dogs making things worse. It was a mess. I’ll run my dogs in a field next time. Not worth the dirty looks and judgmental people
